The future of music, made here.

Gunther Schuller

The son of German immigrants, Gunther Schuller was born in New York on November 22, 1925. His professional music career began as a horn player, performing with the American Ballet Theater, as principal horn in the Cincinnati Symphony (1943-45) and with the Metropolitan Opera from 1945-59. Schuller’s jazz career also began as a French horn player on Miles Davis’s “Birth of the Cool” recording (1949-50).

As an educator, Schuller first taught at the Manhattan School of Music from 1950-53. From 1964-67 Schuller held the position of professor of composition at Yale University. At the request of Aaron Copland, Schuller began teaching at the Berkshire Music Center at Tanglewood in 1963 and subsequently served as its artistic director from 1969-84.

About Gunther Schuller

From 1967-77, Schuller served as president of the New England Conservatory where he formalized NEC’s commitment to jazz by establishing the first degree-granting jazz program at a major classical conservatory in 1969. Shortly thereafter, he instituted the Third Stream department, subsequently named the Contemporary Improvisation Department, to explore the regions where the two musical “streams” of classical and jazz meet and mingle (Schuller coined the term “Third Stream” during a lecture he gave at Brandeis University in 1957). He hired the iconic Ran Blake to be the department’s chair. Early jazz hires included the legendary Jaki Byard and George Russell.

Along the way, Schuller increased NEC’s profile among the world’s great music institutions in remarkable ways. He insisted from the earliest days of his tenure that contemporary music have equal billing next to the acknowledged classical masterpieces, and that students be equally adept at performing both. He bolstered and revitalized NEC’s string, piano and composition faculties, hiring such influential artists as Louis Krasner, Laurence Lesser, Russell Sherman, and Donald Martino.

In one of Boston’s most notorious periods of racial disharmony, Schuller created community outreach programs that sent young, eager musicians to bring the gift of music into some of the city’s most marginalized neighborhoods. And, in an effort to champion the forgotten music of a neglected American composer, he founded the New England Conservatory Ragtime Ensemble and recorded Scott Joplin: The Red Back Book, which won the 1974 Grammy Award for Best Chamber Music Performance, ignited a latter-day ragtime revival, and spurred tours across America, Russia, and to the White House.

Schuller composed more than 180 works, spanning all musical genres including solo works, orchestral works, chamber music, opera, and jazz. Among Schuller’s orchestral works are Symphony (1965), Seven Studies of Paul Klee (1959), An Arc Ascending (1996), Four Soundscapes, and Shapes and Designs. Schuller’s large-scale work, Of Reminiscences and Reflections, was composed as a tribute to his wife of 49 years, Marjorie Black. In addition to composing for the standard concerto instruments — piano, violin, horn etc. — Schuller also wrote concertos for instruments that had been previously neglected in the concerto repertoire, such as the alto saxophone, bassoon, contrabassoon, organ, and double bass. Schuller also composed a number of works for solo ensemble with orchestra or, in some cases, band.  Examples include Contrasts for Wind Quintet and Orchestra (1967), Concerto for String Quartet and Orchestra, Diptych for Brass Quintet and Concert Band (1967), and Eine kleine Posaunemusik for trombone and band (1980).

Schuller wrote two operas: The Visitation (1966), based on a Kafka story; and the children’s opera The Fisherman and his Wife with text by John Updike, derived from the Grimm fairy tale. Notable among Schuller’s works in the chamber music genre are the String Quartet No. 3 (1986), String Quartet No. 4 (2002) and Symbiosis (1957), a piece for violin, piano, and percussion performed in conjunction with a dancer. Schuller’s original jazz compositions occupy an important place in his overall oeuvre. Many of these works epitomize the Third Stream style.  These include Transformation for jazz ensemble (1957), Concertino for jazz quartet and orchestra (1959), Variants on a Theme of Thelonious Monk (1960), Teardrop, and Jumpin’ in the Future.

In addition to his musical compositions, Schuller wrote several books of note. These include Horn Technique (1962), Early Jazz: its Roots and Musical Development (1968) and its sequel, Swing Era: the Development of Jazz, 1930-1945, as well as The Compleat Conductor (1997).

Gunther Schuller also made his mark on the music publishing industry, founding Margun Music (1975) and GunMar Music (1979). Through these firms, Schuller published his own editions of ragtime music by Scott Joplin, Joseph Lamb and Eubie Blake, as well as jazz and Third Stream music by such artists as Charles Mingus, George Russell, Johnny Carisi, Ran Blake, and Jimmy Giuffre. The GunMar/Margun catalogs are now part of G.Schirmer/Music Sales/AMP. A short time later, in 1980, Schuller founded the record company and label, GM.

Schuller was the recipient of several prestigious awards. These include the William Shuman Award (1988) given by Columbia University, the MacArthur Foundation Genius Award (1991), a Pulitzer Prize in 1994 for his piece Of Reflections and Reminiscences, the Gold Medal for Music from the American Academy of Arts and Letters (1997), the Downbeat Lifetime Achievement Award, and an inaugural membership in the American Classical Music Hall of Fame. Schuller was named the 2007 Fromm Visiting Professor in Music Composition at Harvard University. In 2005, Schuller had previously held the position of Artist in Residence at the University of Wisconsin. In addition, Schuller also maintained a longtime involvement with the Pro Arte Chamber Orchestra, which named him Conductor Laureate in 1990, and their Principal Guest Conductor in 1998.

Gunther Schuller passed away on June 21, 2015.

One particular letter from composer Arthur Custer, dated July 5, 1973, was individually donated to the NEC library by Schuller on June 20, 1977.

The archivist grants access to the Schuller Papers. Appointments must be scheduled in advance. This collection has limited restrictions.

All copyrights to this collection belong to the New England Conservatory. Permission to publish materials from this collection is granted by the Archivist. This collection should be cited as: NECA 1.8. Gunther Schuller Papers, New England Conservatory Archives, Boston, MA.

NEC’s Gunther Schuller Papers are organized into eleven series:

  1. Correspondence/memoranda
  2. Faculty files
  3. Academic department files
  4. Administrative department files
  5. Ensemble records
  6. Gift/bequest files
  7. Student organization records
  8. Special event records
  9. Subject files
  10. External files
  11. Photographs

Correspondence/memoranda

Schuller’s correspondence files contain general correspondence dating primarily from the years 1968-77. Additional files in this series include exchanges with Eleanor Steber, correspondence with NEC administrators, and memoranda to the NEC community.

Faculty files

Schuller’s faculty files, organized alphabetically, contain correspondence between Schuller and numerous NEC faculty members including Frank Battisti, Robert Ceely, Robert Cogan, Lorna Cooke deVaron, John Heiss, Jacob Maxim, Mark Pearson, Daniel Pinkham, Robert Selig, Russell Sherman, Eric Rosenblith and Benjamin Zander. 

One additional faculty correspondence folder contains individual letters from other faculty members, again organized alphabetically. The faculty series also contains Faculty Council records and records concerning discussions between the Faculty Senate and the National Labor Relations Board.

Academic department files

In Schuller’s academic department files, curriculum proposals/reviews can be found for the departments of Chamber Music, Electronic Music, Humanities, Music Literature, the Extension School, and Theory.

Administrative department files

The administrative department files focus primarily on the Community Services Department. The Schuller papers recount the establishment and activities of the Community Services Department, under Directors Helen Harrington and Webster Lewis, and faculty member Ran Blake. This department’s mission was to research and implement various music programs throughout the diverse communities of Greater Boston. 

Other administrative department files include those of Admissions, Building Operations, Dean’s Office, Development/Public Relations, and the Registrar.

Ensemble records

Records of conservatory ensembles include those of the Brass Quintet, Chorus, Orchestra, and Ragtime Ensemble. The majority of these records concern the Chorus and Orchestra trip to France and Switzerland in 1974. These files contain correspondence, planning materials, itineraries, concert schedules, programs etc. Records of this tour are also contained in the Ragtime Ensemble file. 

Particularly noteworthy, however, are the papers relating to a Ragtime Ensemble performance at a White House state dinner during the Gerald Ford administration. Additional folders document the planning of a trip to the Soviet Union by the Ragtime Ensemble as well as recordings made by the Ragtime Ensemble.

Gift/bequest files

The gift/bequest files consist primarily of acknowledgements written by Schuller to donors during the years 1967-71. Many of these gifts were donations to NEC’s Centennial Capital Campaign. 

In this series, there are also more specialized files concerning gifts given in someone’s memory, gifts given for specific scholarship funds, etc. These include gifts made in memory of Mary Fiske Hoffman and J. Harleston Parker as well as contributions to the Tourjee Fund, Chester Williams Fund, and the William A. Valkenier Scholarship Fund. Another file contains one or two acknowledgements respectively for gifts to the Ethan Ayer Scholarship Fund, Virginia Cabot Scholarship Fund, Marion L. Chapin Scholarship Fund, the Lincoln and Therese Filene Scholarship Fund, John E. Lodge Scholarship Fund, Mary C. Morrison Scholarship Fund, John Padavano Scholarship Fund, Laura Porter Scholarship Fund, Edmund H. Sears Memorial Scholarship, Norman B. Tobias Scholarship Fund, Earl Weidner Scholarship Fund, the Westfield Scholarship Fund, and the William L. Whitney Scholarship Fund. 

The following file also includes gifts, many of which are financially significant, from the Anne and Phillip Allen Trust, the Cora M. Murray Trust, Drs. Abraham and Bluma Horwitz Foundation, the Agnes M. Lindsay Trust, the Mary S. Higgins Estate, the Charles Merrill Trust, the Charles Hayden Foundation, the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, the Spaulding-Potter Charitable Trust, and the Rockefeller Foundation. 

The last gifts file contains documentation of non-financial donations to the conservatory, such as books, instruments, and furnishings.

Student organization records

The role of African American students at the conservatory was an important topic during Schuller’s presidency, as is evident from his statement to, and written exchanges with, the African American student organization, Collective Black Artists at NEC (CBANEC). This is also apparent from Schuller’s responses to a controversial New York Times editorial concerning the African American student population at NEC. 

Other student organization files include those of Sigma Alpha Iota and the Student Democratic Society, as well as one folder containing results of student surveys and student evaluations of NEC.

Special event records

In terms of Special Events, a milestone in the history of New England Conservatory was the Centennial anniversary of its founding which coincided with the inauguration of Schuller as President in November 1967. Records from this event include: planning materials, invitations, programs, tickets, and Schuller’s inaugural address. One of the highlights of this celebration was a Centennial Symposium, “The Conservatory Redefined.” Records of this symposium include: minutes of the sub-committee, and speeches by Milton Babbitt, William Bergsma, Robert Cogan, Louis I. Kahn, Louis Krasner, and Robert Mann. Other noteworthy events of this period included the performance of Debussy’s Pelleas et Melisande from an original manuscript, a fundraising concert featuring Eleanor Steber, the New England Conservatory Peace Marathon (part of the national student strike of May 1970), the ISCM World Music Days (1976), and the Vietnam Moratorium. Commencement files contain correspondence from prospective honorary degree candidates including: Boris Goldovsky, Erich Leinsdorf, Artur Rubenstein and Rudolf Serkin.

Subject files

Subject files of interest include records containing information on Brown Hall, the Harrison Keller String Quartet, the Composer’s String Quartet Contest, The Composer’s Show, the Pelleas et Melisande manuscript, the Voice of Firestone Collection and Firestone Library. 

Other subject files recount efforts to establish a Warren Benevolent Fund fellowship at NEC, a Dimitri Mitropoulos Chair in Composition and a Gunther Schuller Fund for the Study of American Music. 

The conservatory faced a serious financial crisis during Schuller’s tenure as president. His files contain correspondence between himself and the Board of Trustees Chairman Sherwin Badger concerning this crisis. Schuller also composed a document entitled “An Appeal and a Challenge to the Trustees” to encourage contribution from the Trustees. This file also contains a booklet entitled “A Case for Survival,” as well as press materials from this time such as an extra section which appeared in the Boston Globe entitled “A Foreclosure on Excellence.” 

The “Instruments” file contains information regarding the purchasing of instruments during this period as well as information concerning the organs in Jordan Hall. 

Finally in this series, there are materials about Schuller himself such as biographical sketches, a curriculum vitae, listings of musical works, a bibliography of articles written by Schuller, a few articles about Schuller, and an interview with Schuller from Downbeat magazine.

External files

Schuller’s External files include correspondence with various Boston media outlets including WGBH, WBZ, WCVB, WHDH, the Boston Globe and the Boston Herald, as well as the New York Times

Other external files document Schuller’s involvement with the Berkshire Music Center at Tanglewood, where Schuller served as director from 1970-84, discussions of a possible merger with Boston University’s School of Music, a potential affiliation with MIT, and NEC’s collaboration with the Kodaly Music Teaching Institute and Kodaly Center of America. 

The NEASC/NASM file contains materials regarding the re-accreditation process that occurred during Schuller’s tenure.

Photographs
